Some topic communities have very low member and post count and exist across various servers under various names. Can i add single post to lets say 4 on-topic communities or is it considered a bad idea. I am aware that I may be searching across different servers and communities so the duplicity is not ideal, but in terms of exposure in small communities, I would really like to do said duplicity.

    Cross-posting is one of Lemmy’s greatest features. Though I would suggest you limit it to three posts. One of the greatest things about cross-posting is it enables people to find new relevant communities, so I would suggest posting from smallest to largest.

      Thanks, I see that the cross-posting works like this: “In order to cross post, I need to first create the post in one community, then after I create the post, I can click the two nested squares icon under the title of the post (with the pop-up text “cross post”) that shows up on mouse-over.” https://lemmy.world/post/354611
